Can True Gynecomastia (Glandular Tissues) Be Cured by Liposuction?

It is important to understand liposuction removes fat and surgery removes glandular tissue (which is firm, more dense).  Gynecomastia can be observed if it isn't bothersome.  It's a cosmetic procedure.  Anytime there is surgery there will be scars.  The scars are generally well hidden or camouflaged around the areola.  This is the trade-off.  So in very mild cases, it may make more sense to wait.

Liposuction is an effective technique to treat gynecomastia.  It there is significant skin excess, additional skin excisions techniques may be needed.  John T. Nguyen, MD, FACS, FICS
